THB Grant and Blaine men are knifing each other at a deadly rate, and John Sherman's ehanees are daily growing better.

THB immigration boom oontinues. The arrivals at New York daring April were 46,821, against 11,601 for the same month last year. ft

ONLY two weeks and a hair till the Chicago convention, bnt that is time enoagh in which to kill off several men as the fight is now going on.

THB Republican party may be strong enoagh to withstand the inter-necine war now going on within its own ranks and live, bnt the chances are doabtfal.

THRKB more Republican State Conventions were held on Wednesday of this week, namely, in Michigan, West Virginia and Florida. Of the delegates chosen, Blaine gets about 30 and Grant eight or ten.

DURING the week there has been a heavy decline In stocks and a vast amount of money lost—mostly by outside speculators. Jay Gould is supposed to have reaped a golden harvest from the panic. He is usually able to take CAreof himself.

INDIANA is going to have a ship canal, too, if the thins in feasible. It is to run from a point somewhere on the Wabash to Lake Erie, and a bill has been reported in Congress appropriating |15,0^ for a survey of the ground in orda^^ determine the practicability of en terprise.

&R. ORTH appears to be coming to the ront as a gubernational candidate, 81 nee his late speech in Congress his name is freely mentioned for the place and Col. Kobertson, of Ft. Wayne, who was on tbe ticket with him in 1876, comes out aquarely for his nomination again But it rotnains to be seen how the proposition will strike those who have the control of the party machinery IntbeStace.

As the United-States leads in everything else it is not surprisiug that she consumes more coffee than,any other nation. We are credited with using 333,000,000 pounds annually, which is three times the quantity consumed by France or England, and fifty per cent more than the quantity used by Germany, Russia is perhaps the smallest coffee drinker, being satisfied with one fifth of a pound per capita.

THE following are some of the principal Horns of expense whioh the several countif a of the State pay in the administration of government: for support of the poor, 1706,079 official salaries, |627, 318 jurors' fees, 9373,531 public buildings, 1486,482 stationery and printing, 1167,040 prisoners and criminals, |148,272 ranking a total of about $3,000,000 The cost of maintaining the schools is equal or greater that the above sum.

Ir the ohargea made against Wash burne are true, namoly, that while professing the utmost friendship for Grant, be has beeu secretly intriguing to get the advantage of him, (and the action of his friends in the Cook county con ventlon give some ground for belief In the truth of these charges,) Mr. Wash burne has furnished an Instance of perfidy almost uumato^ed in the mod ern times. It is is to be hoped, for the sake of human nature, that the charges are untrue.

WHATRVKR maybe said of the conduct of the men who are working so strenuously to secure the nomination of General Grant, it must not be forgotten that the General himself has maintained An unbroken silence from the very outset, and has conducted himself with per feet decorum. He has not said that he desired the nomination even and if any of his friends are open to the charge of becoming over xsalous in his behalf, it is what has happened with others before him and will happen again. But be \ahould not be held responsible for the *c lions of his friends, if those actions *t« without any authority from him.

TttKTandalia railroad company has •J^annout^id Its determination of reducing its pfea^oger rttes from four to three cents per wife after Juno 1st. Tula Is an Important«t*p and if It shall result, as the managartJbelleve it will, in an ^increase of trav%l\uffic4snt to save the ^company from exjjeriment will doubtless be tollowe^by other roads.

That such a result will follow may confidently be expected, reduction of coot has Invariably been followed by increased patronage whetever it has been tried and there Is apparently no good reason why the role should not 1: Md in the railroad business as «Jse» v. ut re. At all events, as the matter of cheap travel fa an import

public, the i'fxxae of the exjv meot will be awaited with interest. S

GLADSTONE.

The parliamentary elections held in Great Britain, last month, brought rather unexpectedly to the head of the government the most able and representative man in that country. It is now almost fifty years since Willfam Ewait Gladstone entered the House of Commons, and from that dfay to this he has been the subject of incessant interest for, while he has been out of public office for considerable periods during that time, he has employed his great talents ia some way to excite notice and provoke criticism.

His father, Sir John Gladstone, tegan business as a merchant in Liverpool in a small way, at the age of twenty-two, and by engaging in the East India trade, rapidly accumulated an immense fortune. He also sat in parliament at different times. His father early designed William for a public career and educated him with that end in view. Born in 1809, he was sent to Eton at the age of twelve, and eight years later went to Oxford, where he graduated at the age of twenty-two. The next year he entered parliament, where he at once gained a prominent position. It is said that Lis first success as a speaker was the result less of eloquence than of the diligent and thorough manner in which be prepared himself upon every subject he was recfuired»to handle. When he spoke he always had something to say and was therefore listened to with respect and interest, Says one, writing of this period of his career: "His manner was singular in the House of Commons, where dapper debaters and glibtongued orators, with very little in their heads, are always ready enough spring to their feet and

arrogant^ge

liver themselves of piatitug£gf

or

^lar

ney, to the disgust of repgrter8

and the

dismay of the Spe^g^ Yet here was a man of the profound scholarship, ifthe quietest possible tone of

Yce,—mild, clear, and harmonious,— in an abstracted, absorbed and unaffected manner, delivered himself of these rious utterances of a deeply reflective and religious spirit. He was never personal, and he carefully avoided all appeals which oouid serve to rouse the violence of political or religious rancor."

Mr. Gladstone's first term in parliament was oi only three years duration, ending with Sir Robert Feel's ministry in 1835. During the six years which followed he ocoupied much of bis leisure time with literature, being a diligent contributor to various periodicals. In criticising one of his essays, Lord Macauley spoke of his mind as of "large grasp," perhaps the truest description that could be given of it,

In 1841 Mr. Peel returned to power, and Gladstone returned with him. From this time on be came more and more closely into

collls^(n

with his^ /amous

rival, Dlsraol). The stylo of the two men was widely different. Disraeli was brilliant, sarcastic and defiant, while Gladstoue was coo], keen and logical. In weight of character Gladstone had much the advantage. A memorable conflict between these two great leaders occurred on the night of Dec. 16,1852. Disraeli spoke from ten at night until two in the morning, delivering a splendid and masterly speech. The House was impatient to vote, and difficult as it was to get a hearing at such a time, Mr. Gladstone sprang to bis feet and spoke for two hours in a manner that marked him as one of the greatest orators and most successful debaters of modern times. The reputation which he then gained has not diminished with increasing years, and though now seventy-one years of age, his mind and body are still in their lull vigor and to bis efforts mainly is the success of the recent elections attributed.

THB sensation of the week in politioal circles has been the contest in the Cook county, Illinois, Republican convention between the Grant and anti-Grant elements. The primary elections were held on last Saturday in Chicago and the townships composing Cook county, and were hotly contested, resulting in the selection of a certain number of Grant, Blaine and Wash burne delegates. The Grant men had a plurality of all the delegates, but, after aotively caucussing during Sunday, the Blaine and Washburne men formed a coalition and together had a majority when the convention met on Monday. Taking advantage of their position they proposed to send a solid anti-Grant delegation to the State convention, and proceeded accordingly. The Grant men demanded a pro rata representation, and when this was denied them they bolted and went offln body and organised another conventiou. The result Is that two delegations will go from Chicago to the State convention, one aolid for Grant and the other as solid against him. What action the State convention will take in the premises is variously predicted. There will be three courses open: either to admit the entire Grant delegation, or theentlre Blalue-Wasbbarne delegation, or a portion of both of them. The latter latter course would aeem to be the more equitable, but there has been so muds bad blood engendered by the contest in Illinois that there is no guesting what the action of the convention will be. When the passions ot men onoe get the mastery over their judgment it is impossible even to conjecture to what lengths they will go. !w

THE New York Sun says the Secretary of the Navy has confessed that seven-tenths of all the recent Western recruits are now begging to be put ashore that be has been worried all winter with the pathetic pleadings of their friends to discbarge them on the ground of homesickness and that his efforts to "nationalize the navy" must be abandoned.

SPKAKJNG of what it is that makes up the comforts of a home, the Golden Rule says: "A good many men think they have done their full duty if they pay the bills, more or less grudgingly. Bat one might as well try to warm a room with afire place and a pair of silver pl&ted andirons, and no fuel or fire, as to make a home a home with money. The money simply makes a place for the home to complete it the man must put in himself, and the best part of himself at that."

FROM COLORADO

LETTER FROM OSCAR RANKIN.

GUNNISON CITY, Col., May 3,1880, Editor Saturday Evening Mail: DEAR SIR—Having promisgg^tfne of my friends athggae ffifritT* believe they all read E^l)that I would write tb®nMM5m tbis, the "Eldorado of Amermisnamed Colorado, I therefore direct the same to you, so that one communication will suffioe the many. I received a good send-off through my friend Barton, of toe I, fc St. L., on the 6th of April, and reached Canon City on the 9tb, having stopped over one day at Pueblo to visit my old Terre Haute acquaintances. 1 found Charles Smith in improved health from what be had been during the winter, while Arthur Green is too fleshy to be recognized, except by bis manner of pedestrianism. He is taken by the country, preferring it to the East. I did not meet the Wilson boys, but learned they were doing exceedingly well. George Morgan has set bis stake for the State treasurership, with a good show for success. May he succeed is my heartfelt wish, as George made a model county treasurer for the term he served.

Leaving Canon City on the 11th ult. by wagon, which my companion du voyage, Mr. M., and myself had chartered to this point (having provided ourselves with all the necessities and comforts of life not attainaWft on the road),, we found everything pleasant and novel, intereatUyr even to myself, whn bad *0°%iahAWi oflfcn* 1.1,

The evening!)WniiJWeoonct- AJ. OAJ rated anew order of thingr, iCitHnjiicmr wittta strong west wind blowing down from off the snow capped Sapgre de Chri»te—a cooling blast equal tP Klngan & Co's patent refrigerato?—whioh said storm continued with increasing force and effect four days and nights. The fourth day, having to cross the Continental divide, on che Cochetope, through a driving Bnow storm, overcoats and walking were quite comfortable.

We reached here on the 19th in good health, and found the valley, as well as the foothills, free from snow, and every body busy, alive to the one engrossing idea, that Gunnison City was to be a city in tact as well as name. Finding it impracticable to continue my journey to Gothic City, on account of deep snow, I went into camp, and have watched the daily increase of population and wealth pouring into the town. Situate as it is at the "gate" of the mining camps for all coming the Alamosa or Marshall Pass routes, and being the coanty seat of Gunnison oounty, it will lively make an important point. Its altitude is about 6,500 feet, and it is surrounded almost by rich mining camps, with abundance of fine bituminous coal convenient. The Pitkin district lies due east, twenty miles distant, Taylor river mines north by northeast, 25 to 30 miles then follows to the northerly, north and northwest the Elk Mountains, 38 miles, Rock Creek, 45 miles, Washington district, 40 miles, State river, 40 miles, and Ruby district, 28 miles then the at present unknown wealth of the Reservation, from 30 to 60 miles to the southwest 60 miles southwest is Lake City, with its immense capital and machinery already employed all looking to this the mos feasible route,

But the, foundation of all thia attraction of people and capital is mineral, existing in these surrounding snow capped ranges. That veins of rich gold and silver, copper and galena ores do exist hss ceased to be a question, but the extent is not yet fully known, last year being the first that any developments were made. This year will be necessary for the attraction of large capitalists permanently. Yet of a hundred mines that I am personally acquainted with, all have improved from the surface with every foot gained in depth. Only yesterday I learned of another strike at 15 feet in depth one of the owners having gone up on snow shoes, and desiring to satisfy himself mote folly of the extent and richness of vein, found within 5 feet of where his sssessment work left off, a four foot vein of solid mineral "gray copper," worth all a man with plenty of cheek would be willing to ask for it. This is only one in a number of instances that are and will be occoring daily here.

All the roads, as far as the ground Is bare, are in good condition, and provisions are plenty staples (except whisky)

•re about the same as Terre Haute re tail price, with from 5 to 6 per eent added for freight luxuries are high, and can be taken or left alone gambling is very expensive, yet nine out of ten indulge. City lots are plenty at prioea asked, and are advancing 10 per cent each week they are worth from 1100 to |250 each. They must have struck anew method of compounding, as these same lots in February sold at from |25 to 950 but then you get the privilege of helping to pay for the new court house, jail, etc., to be erected at once. They can, however, boast of a level, gravelly looation and plenty of water. The population here now is probably 2,500, one-half of whom are only waiting for the snow^to disappear to go the mountains, and more will follow to cater to their wants. Train loads of mills and maohinery are arriving daily and going into camp. There is no trouble to get work, and money is being spent freely in building up and improving the town.

The season is very late here this spring, and those* wanting to work, prospect, or look at the country, would be early enough were they to leave the States from the first to the middle of June. This winter has Remonstrated the fact that mines can be worked in these mountains at any timeef the year, and ores can be marketed as well, but with so me additional expense. But all rospecting 'and fitiA assessment most be done while the ground is bare.

The D. fc S. P. R, R. is forking to reach here by the first of October, and the D. G. or the A., T. A S. F. will likely be completed during the fall, when the Elk Mountains will be as convenient of access as Georgetown or Leadville.

There is certainly no healthier oountry to be found than here. Yet no man should leave a good situation or busi ness in the States for an uncertainty here. Last year at least 30 per cent struck it rich, making from |C,000 to fl00,000 eaoh for their summer's work, while 70 per oent are hoping their luck will come this year. This is, I believe, as large a ratio of lucky finds as any I have ever known, either in placer or quartz mining. The ordinary laboring man, or miner, can get steady work and lay up money here, by eoonomy, but extravagance is contagious. The better success, the freer they spend what they have.

We will soon have four newspapers, published weekly, in the county, material for that many being now on the way. So 1 think we will have light to see our way to prosperity and influence. More anon. O. R.

HESS MAD.

MODERN YOUNG# LADY AT TWO IODSOF HER LIFE.

ork Graphic.

Id her at eleven.

Her.limbs .unfettered by the long skirts of conventionality, sheiruns, she romps, she sBdes on the ice ponds, sh0 rolls hoops, s^e climbs fences, she leaps, she kicks, she runs races and is as fleet of foot as the boys. Her appetite is good, her cheeks rosy, and her movements unconsciously graceful.

Behold her again at twenty. No more does she run or jump or roll hoop, run races or slide on the ice. It is not "proper" now nor ladylike, and she couldn't if she would, for she is fettered by long skirts, tight shoes and tighter stays. Her movement has no longer the freedom and unconscious grace of childhood, for now when she walks abroad she walks to be looked at, which now in her estimation is the main object of walking. She is already in delioate health, ana has a doctor who prescribes expensive advice and prescriptions for her, and ascribes ber complaints to anything and everything but the right cause. That is simply the fettering of her body with fashionable clothes. Physically she is now a prisoner. At eleven she was free. The doctor sdvises travel, but he doesn't advise her to take off and keep off her fashionable fetters. She wouldn't do so if he did, and he wouldn't advise her if he knew it would bring relief, for she would no longer believe in a doctor who would make her dress like a guy and being dressed like a "guy" is dressing different from the style prescribed by a Paris modiste. Diana never could hunt In a trailing skirt, narrow, tight, high heeled gaiters, and a pinchea, corseted waist, but Diana with a belted tunic and unfettered limbs would be bounced off Broadway by the nearest policeman. Dressing for health and freedom of limb and body is one thing, snd dressing for fashion is quite another. A man couldn't endure the pinching and encumbrances peculiar to feminine attire for an hour, and a pretty spectacle he'd make rushing about in such dnring business hours. Yet the "weaker sex" wear double the encumbrances of tbe so-called stronger. To "dress" at all after tbe style uses up half a woman's time and two-thirds ot her strength.

WILL WHITE has obtained steam power from Hunter's Steam Laundry, by which he is making the most delicious ioe cream to be had In tbe dty. He has also made a contract with Mr. Preston for a constant supply of his Aldemey cream. To-day he will have vanilla, strawberry and lemon ice cream and lemon ioe. Hia handsome parlors are quite an attraction, and in a few days he will quit tbe restaurant and regular meals business dnring the summer, keeping only one cook to serve meals ordered, so that hia many customers can be served with ice cream at til hours. Icecream furnished to parties and festivals at wholesale prices.

He Made a Mistake.

A Boston speculator, hearing that a certain tribe on tbe west shore of Africa had no shoes, loaded a ship with those useful articles and sent it there,feeling convinced that they would supply a long-felt want and be eagerly purchased by the barefooted natives. Two facts were ascertained when the ship reached its destination, viz: The natives never had and never wanted any shoes and they never bought anything, but stole whatever they could lay their hands on, or, as in this case (of Bltoes), put their feet into. But one pair of shoes brought anything, and they were only half-soled. Destitute of money up to that time, every native was well heeled by the time the ship left. We have thought that the real mistake was in sending shoes. It would have turned out differently with clothing, allowing that it came from Owen, Pixley & Co's. Show one of their fashionable suits to a barbarian, even, who was never dressed up in anything more than a finger-ring in all his life, and he would exchange all of his possessions for iu» To be sure, he might stick, his legs into the coat sleeves, and wear the pantaloons around his neck tied in a bow-knot, but his barbaric mind would recognize the fact that there was style about Owen, Pixley & Co'a clothing.
